“Still Life Vase with Five Sunflowers” is a notable artwork created by the renowned artist Vincent van Gogh in 1888, during his stay in Arles, Bouches-du-Rhône, France. Executed with oil on canvas, this piece belongs to the Post-Impressionism movement and represents the genre of flower painting. Unfortunately, this distinguished artwork has been destroyed.
The artwork features five sunflowers arranged in a vase, capturing a moment of natural beauty amidst the vibrancy of life. The sunflowers, displaying various stages of bloom and decay, are depicted with van Gogh’s characteristic bold and expressive brushstrokes. The color palette is rich, highlighting the contrast between the vivid yellow petals and the dark background, evoking both the brilliance and fleeting nature of life.
